So I’ve jumped feet first into the PS5 universe:
PS5 Slim Extra dualsense controller Dualsense charging station Gran Turismo 7 Mortal Kombat 1 Spider-Man 2(bundled with console) Logitech G923 TrueForce Racing Wheel & Pedals
Any recommendations for a 2Tb m.2 SSD? Which brand or should I stick with the Sony recommended WD SSD?

I just love old cameras. D700 Nikon used like 28,000 on the clock basically new. Got a 24mm F2.8 lens too both of course used. Bonus Money fun. Even a 6 month warranty on both.

B&H said shipping March 15 ... arrived precisely 10am today! Now for an afternoon of testing in the backyard. It's a Sigma 500mm f/5.6 and it is ridiculously small and light!

Just ordered a iPad 9th gen. My 9 year old Galaxy tab S2 stopped taking a charge so at the price of the iPad I figured I'd give it a try. I had an iPhone over 20 years ago so I'll try an iPad now. www.amazon.com/dp/B09G9CJM1Z?tag=bg1-584030-20Mitch

I have steeped living more with Android then I do with IOS, I am mostly IOS today only because my work uses it. Otherwise I probably would be still mostly Android again, but since most of my Pro gear wants IOS, kind of where I stay for now. Both get it done. It just depends what you want.

Getting back to "headphone phase" as a "cheaper" way of getting hifi compared to speakers and room treatments/correction, etc. I got a demo of the LCD-X which should arrive this week. Also got a Modius/Magnius stack to drive the LCD-X using balanced connections. But no promises that I'm going to refrain from checking CAM for "arendal" to replace my LR which are currently B&W 602 S2 and Emotiva ERM 6.3 as center.[ www.canuckaudiomart.com/search.php?keywords=arendal

I finally grew tired of using “creative solutions“ to dispose of sensitive documents And bought this Fellowes 99Ci shredder.
Very nice finally be able to find my way around the office without tripping lol.

One and done lens with constant aperture. This my toy camera after all unlike my PRoduction Sonys, and Canon. The Nikon MD-B10 battery grip and 24-120mm lens with F4 constant aperture. Real nice for video too later if I want.

So, we plan to go there for it. She just told us that all but 1 hotel room in town is booked, and they are asking ~$1000 for it. We made sure our usual room as Casa-Mother-in-Law is available for the usual (free) rate. Mark

I got a ton of pics in various stages.
